The Man of Senjudou (1x21)

Date de diffusion: Mai 28, 2005

Sarah buys a watch from a young man in the street for 3 million Yen. When Fujita sees the wristwatch he makes Sara take him to the shop called Senjudou (Temple of a thousand hands) that created the watch. Fujita discovers an eccentric young watchmaker, Hakaru, who is going broke because of the few sales he makes. Fujita commissions him to make a copy of a Marie Antoinette pocket watch originally created in 1782 by Abraham-Louis Breguet for which he will pay 100 million Yen. However the plans Fujita provides are incomplete and Hakaru must design his own minute-repeater mechanism. The challenge is almost insurmountable, but he succeeds, creating an exclusive and valuable Senjudou version of Marie Antoinette pocket watch.
